"Travis Cartwright has provided many services to us over the last 12 years. These are some of them: clean up work, pulled a sunk boat from our pond, excavated our home site and installed our septic tank & drain field. Travis is an excellent equipment operator and we highly recommend him-"

"Clearly Leveled Up was great. They arrived on time and started working right away. The workers, Mike and BJ were very professional. They were courteous and very easy to converse with. They did exactly what we asked for and we love it !!! Wish we could have sent the photos of the work but the system keeps telling us the file was too large."

"After being ignored by two other contractors for a relatively small residential drainage project Brennan was a happy change. He reviewed the work when he said he would. His proposed solution was far more practical than the other contractors and less costly. He started the work when promised and did an excellent job. The work was completed per our agreed scope and everything was left in a tidy state. On top of this the work was completed more quickly than expected and Brennan asked for substantially less payment than the agreed on quote. I was so pleased with the entire experience that I paid more than he asked for. I strongly recommend Mokma Grading for the intelligence, quality and honesty shown. They'll be the only contractor I call for similar work in future."

"Fantastic job. Loredo Stone-Creek was easy to work with and the final product is absolutely beautiful. We were not just putting in a patio but we're to solve a drainage problem along with to reducng the dirt that ended up on the deck and porch. I did not know to do this but Ronnie and the others from Loredo-Stone Creek designed the perfect patio. I am so happy with it. I highly recommend Loredo Stone-Creek."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.
